Dr. Bernstein Diabetes Solution

Hello,
I wanted to share with you this discovery and ask you about whether you know this man, his career
and proposal for the treatment of diabetes.
I have discovered it a few weeks ago and it seems quite interesting, in fact, following its indications (to some extent, for gradually doing it) I have managed to reduce my total insulin units around 30% and started to lose weight, somethingThat normally costs me horrors.
But the most important thing is that my glycemic levels have flattened a lot, without the usual rises and descents.
This man apparently is type 1 since the age of 12 and currently has more than 80 years without serious complications for the disease.Advocates a very low diet in carbohydrates (rich in healthy fats and protein) with the consequent reduction in the insulin dose and therefore variability in blood glucose.
Its approaches may sound eccentric, or even transgressors if we face what it comes to us through the official roads, but of course they are full of scientific base and exposes them quite clearly.
It has a pair of quite interesting books (the main one entitled Diabetes Solution) and even a YouTube channel with many seminars, the only paste is that everything is in English.
Does anyone know it?Have you tried to follow your proposals?

I have not read his book yet but I have it pending, I have left it because in English it gives me enough laziness but I have seen summaries of what he proposes and I think it makes a lot of sense.In fact I get to a similar conclusion reading online in several blogs.I gradually started to take away hydrates and now I follow a low hydrate diet (about 50-60gr per day) of vegetables mainly with some fruit, some dairy and some legume from time to time.When I read your book I will try a season what you propose to see if I improve or remain the same because right now it is doing very well.I have a 5.5 glycal with few hypoglycemia and almost without peaks after meals.

Just say that I have been following the low diet in hydrates that proposes and my last two glycosylated ones have been 5.4 and 5.7 .. Before they were around or 6.5 .. the reduction of hypoglycemia hasIt was radical. And I have not made it strict, I have had a few months more relaxed within that period.It is a pity that his doctrine does not diffusion in Spanish, he has even a YouTube channel, what this man knows is tremendous, he should be the treatment standard for all of us

@"tigrecito" @"Yesssica_a" Hello.I also follow a diet (very) low in carbohydrates.I am reading Dr. Bernstein's book.I decided to turn my diet there by the end of January.I started reading, looking for alternatives, to enter groups and read the experiences of many people.Fortunately, I bore the blog of a Huesca doctor ( Link and that was the beginning ..At the end of April I started the new diet.My last glycosylated is 5.2%.For now I am more than happy, I have reached my main objective: "Normaglycemia" and as a consequence my quality of life has improved a lot.I wish I had started the day they gave me the diagnosis.

@"Amélie" I think you are the Diabetes Facebook group low in hydrates, right?I told you the other day in a publication that you put.
@"Tigrecito" There is a Facebook group also in Spanish, it is called "Diabetes low in hydrates" in case you are interested.

"Diabetes low in hydrates"
Very good group, I have already been able to see something of the content they publish ..

@"Dalu" is called "Diabetes low in hydrates", put it in the Facebook search engine and should leave you.If you don't see it, tell me and put the URL.

This diet works for very sedentary people who move very little, as you exercise intense 3 or more days per week and be active you will tell me if it is viable ..
07/29/2018 11:29 a.m.
And those who do not know even pope in English, do you know if it can be achieved in Spanish?
07/29/2018 12:31 p.m.
@"Antonimar" in Spanish is not, they have not published it in Spanish and it does not seem to be published.In the Facebook group I have commented there are some chapters translated by one of the members.In the blog Lameteoquevene there is also some piece translated and commented by the author who is a medical and specialist in low hydrates diets.We also have more information on the subject of other sources in case you are interested.
@"Shaky92" can be done perfectly following this diet.I usually do sports and in the group there are many people who do it too and we have no problem.The author of the book with 84 years has a very active life and does sports.The body can get fat from the fat once you pass a few days of adaptation and there is no problem.

And I say not everyone will work this method well.
Proteins and fats are stored in glucose, some people 100%, so insulin needs are the same.I don't see it so clear as to generalize it.

Taking into account that it says "solution" when it is no solution to diabetes, it seems to me one more charlatan.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
Chalatan as such, I understand that no but it is not true that it serves everyone.
I bad proteins, I turn them all into glucose.It does not reduce the insulin dose, on the contrary I have to increase them because it costs me much longer to digest them.The same with the cured cheeses.I love but glycemia up a barbarity for hours.
Each one is going well for some things or others.

To those who disqualify this man and his doctrine with such demolish arguments I strongly recommend that they take a look at their proposal, they would possibly appreciate it ..

This is simply not so .. fats are not digested in the form of glucose or other carbohydrates at all, nor do they influence how all these years have been promoted in a worse lipid profile normally, if they can influence the digestion of HC delaying it withThe well-known increases at 3-4 h of having eaten.
Only proteins can be digested and generate glucose in a low %, because it is an inefficient route, and also Dr Bernstein and this new current treats it properly.
